In an Instagram post, she spoke about the importance of working out regularly.
“It’s crazy that as a sports presenter, I grew up watching almost every sport on TV, but did zero sport myself, finding any excuse to miss PE lessons at school (I was actually a decent sprinter once!) I dipped in and out as an adult, but fitness was never a priority. I also didn’t “need” to exercise as such, because I was one of those who could eat what I wanted and never really put on weight, even after kids,” she wrote.
“I now truly believe that exercise is a form of self love and the best thing you can do for yourself and those around you. It started off as a vanity project in my 30s – and needing energy (with two kids, 20 months apart) but now it’s completely transformed the way I think, how I plan my day, what I eat and what I cook for my family – pretty much everything,” she added.
